A tilley th5 hemp hat, a cracking hat. Swmbo is under the impression it's a regatta costing a tenner.....

touched by nature

I'm lucky enough to have four Tilley Hats. But the TH5 Hemp is by far my favourite, and the most stylish I reckon. Hope you enjoy wearing it.

I've been wearing it for the last couple of days. Chuffed to bits with it, it just... felt better than the t3 imo. So much so that I'm gonna get the tec wool so I'm ready for when the cold returns.

Return? Did it actually go away? Last week I wore a hat to stop getting sunburn, this week I've been wearing a hat to keep warm!

Trying to think of what I've bought recently to add something to this thread but I've been busy working 9 hours days all this week and not bought anything, I did manage to knock off early today though. Does €45 in the car's diesel tank count?
 
£75 worth of bike bits (mainly a new set of brake levers and cross top levers) for my old 80s road bike
sadly the crosstop levers were the wrong size and have to go back :( 80s bikes dont have oversized handlebars! :11doh:
 
What I bought today was a digital camera so I can stop threatening to post pics of my spoons and actually do it. I think I'm addicted. To spoons, that is, not cameras. Is there a cure?

Cheers,
Leif

Just placed an order for another pair of IMHO the excellent Teddy Bear trousers (36"S) £25 + £4.95 P&P

Very happy with the pair I got earlier in the year, lightweight, hard wearing, quick drying and sufficiently pockety to keep a pocket freak like me happy. So when I saw these going relatively cheap, I felt it would be rude not to get myself another pair.
 
My vango mk4 force ten arrived today. Dated 1996, stored for years. Brand new, never used. Chuffed to bits :) . Got it down to 8 mins pitching time. Talk about bomb proof, absolutely over the moon. This is where everyone comes on the forum telling me how pooh they are lol.

Nope they're brilliant; but even in their day they were heavy and these days they are definitely very heavy but for car camping they are the dogs danglies.
